Downloaded .deb Goes Into MediaCenter
« on: November 02, 2020, 04:00:51 pm »

For some reason, when MediaCenter tells me that there is an update (which in this case I had already purchased but never installed) and I follow the download link within MediaCenter's opening page, it adds the .deb file to MediaCenter in some odd place that I've not been able to locate. When I look where it SAYS it downloaded it, it's not there so I have to send it to myself from MediaCenter in an email (which, of course, is too large to send that way) and save the file from the attachment in the mail composer window. Seems a very round-about way to get an update so is there some way that it can be made to prompt where non-media files should go?

You should add the APT repository and update Media Center that way via the update manager in Ubuntu.

Perhaps but that doesn't answer the question about why it does not prompt for a location when downloading a non-media file such as a .deb.
